Chapter 413: Digging graves for clues

In the graveyard of Zhang Daniu's mother in Zhangjiawan.

Tang Sheng stood in front of Zhang Daniu's mother's grave with a shovel in his hand.

"I'm sorry, for the sake of your son, your grandson, and your unfulfilled wishes, I have to offend, please don't blame me." After that, he began to dig the grave.

His memory, when Zhang Daniu's mother was buried, there was a painting buried together, so many years, I don't know if there is decay, but I still have to dig it up and take a look, maybe I can find any clues from it.

Zhang Daquan was very uneasy because of what happened last night, so he came over with a pot of wine, wanting to worship his father and ask his father under the spring to bless him with safety.

Just walked to the cemetery and looked at the overgrown weeds in front of him, and he wrinkled his brow.

I finally went in, and saw a person digging a grave from a distance, and it was my own grave, so I immediately ran over and scolded at the same time.

"Which thing lacks virtue and dares to dig my grave."

Tang Sheng ignored him because he knew who was coming.

Zhang Daquan saw that he ignored him and continued to dig, so he walked over and stretched out his hand to pull him.

"So you didn't hear or what's wrong, what are you digging my grave for? Are you lacking in heart? ”

"Look clearly, I'm digging Zhang Da Niu's fucking grave, and your Lao Tzu's grave is that."

Zhang Daquan followed his hand and looked at the grave next to him, and then looked at his face, terrified.

"You ......"

You have been for a long time, Zhang Daquan can't speak, if it weren't for his soft feet, he really wanted to run away immediately.

Tang Sheng glanced at him, climbed up and grabbed him and ordered directly.

"You, go down and dig for me."

Zhang Daquan's mind went blank, and it took him a while before he spoke.

"Childe, the person is dead, why bother the dead again?"

Zhang Daquan is reluctant to dig, after all, this is a lack of morality, although this woman is not his mother, but she came to the house and never treated herself badly, how could he do such a thing? Absolutely can't do it.

"If you are told to dig it, where is there so much nonsense, don't you want to die?"

Tang Sheng's threat, Zhang Daquan didn't care about the lack of virtue or not, and immediately jumped down and dug with a shovel.

And he stood and watched from above, and from time to time told Zhang Daquan to dig carefully.

It took about a morning to dig up the grave, and the two worked together to carry the rotting coffin out.

Zhang Daquan climbed up and sat directly on the ground panting.

"Grave... Already... Dig it out, I... Isn't it possible... Went back? ”

"Don't say it, or you'll have your head." After speaking, he nodded.

As soon as he nodded, Zhang Daquan immediately got up from the ground and ran away from here at a very fast speed.

He couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the man who was tired and out of breath just now, and now he was running so fast.

Looking back at Zhang Da Niuniang's grave, he used a dagger to pry the nails open, and then uncovered the coffin.

There was nothing but a damp, musty smell. Because Zhang Daniu's mother asked for cremation, there was an ash jar in this coffin, and then there were burial goods.

When the musty smell in the coffin had subsided, he took out the burial goods.

It's all worthless stuff that's moldy, and there's a long box in it that doesn't look like it's supposed to rot inside.

Opening the box and seeing a scroll, he opened it to see.

Looking at the person in the portrait, he furrowed his brows, this person looked a little similar to himself, but the person in the painting looked softer.

This should be the man in her mind!

Put the painting away, then put it back and cover the coffin and bury it again.

When it was done, he stood in front of the grave with the portrait.

"Don't worry, I'll help you find this person."

Suddenly, the wind rose, as if in response to Tang Sheng, Tang Sheng bowed three times, took the painting and left here.

He left from Zhangjiawan, and when he walked into Zhangjiawan, the people in the village saw the stranger coming and stared at him. Only Zhang Daquan and his family saw him as if they had seen a ghost, and closed the door tightly.

Tang Sheng sneered and walked in front of the village chief.

The village chief raised his head to look at him and asked, "This young man, who are you looking for?" ”

Tang Sheng glanced inside the village chief's house, then shook his head and turned to leave.

The village chief looked at his back and felt very familiar, no matter how he looked at it, he thought it was Zhang Daniu, but obviously his face was not like it. And I heard that the wanted warrant for Zhang Daniu's family specifically noted: Zhang Daniu's face is disfigured.

So I didn't think much about it.

******

When Tang Sheng returned to the inn, it was already afternoon.

Zhou Yiran sat by the window of the room and knocked melon seeds to read, the door was pushed open, and she immediately turned back.

Looking at the dusty man, she frowned.

"What are you doing here? Why are the clothes all covered with loess? After saying that, he saw a scroll in his hand, got up and went over to take it, and asked as he opened it, "What is this?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she was stunned.

raised his head and looked at Tang Sheng, who was undressing, and said, "The person above here looks like you." ”

"Zhang Daniu's father is naturally like it." After saying that, he walked over to the cabinet and took out his clothes and put them on.

After listening to Tang Sheng's words, she took the portrait and went over to him about it, and then nodded in praise.

"Don't really say it, your face, mouth and nose are inherited from your father, but these eyes are different from the portrait, I think it should be inherited from your mother." After speaking, he stared at the portrait and continued to look at it.

Tang Sheng smiled and told her not to break the painting, and then went downstairs.

She took the portrait and looked at it on the table in the window, and when she looked at it, she noticed that the eyes of the person in the portrait seemed to resemble a person, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

Tang Sheng came up, saw that she was still staring at the painting, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, and after taking two sips of tea, he opened his mouth to ask.

"What's so nice about this?"

"I think this person looks like a person, except for you, but I don't have a good memory, and I can't remember who it is."

Hearing her say this, Tang Sheng laughed and directly told her who she looked like.

"Like Emperor Chu."

The appearance of Emperor Chu immediately flashed in her mind, and then she looked at Tang Sheng with wide eyes.

"Your dad can't be a member of the royal family, right?"

The corners of Tang Sheng's lips curled and he smiled.

Seeing that Tang Shengguang smiled and didn't speak, she raised her hand and patted him on the chest.

"Don't just laugh!"

Tang Sheng grabbed her hand and asked her, "If Zhang Daniu's father is really from the royal family, are you afraid?" ”

"What am I afraid of? We've been through so much together, what's there to be afraid of, as long as you are, I'll follow you wherever you are. She felt it was strange for Tang Sheng to ask this question.

"I'm going to go back to the capital, Zhou Qing should know who the person in this portrait is." Tang Sheng said to her.

Zhou Yiran nodded, and then asked him, "When will you leave?" ”

"We'll leave tomorrow, but are you fit to eat?" He just came to Fengyu Town, and he had to rush again in a day, and he was worried that Xiaoran's body would not be able to bear it.

She nodded and said with a smile, "You think of me too weakly. ”

Tang Sheng raised his eyebrows, it seemed that he underestimated his daughter-in-law.

"In that case, then I'll go buy two good horses after I've eaten, and then prepare something to use on the road."

Hearing that he hadn't eaten yet, she frowned: "What are you doing, you haven't eaten yet?" ”

After saying that, he turned his head to look at the painting, picked it up and smelled it, it was full of musty smell.

In addition, Tang Sheng was covered in loess when he came back, and she looked at Tang Sheng with a wrinkled brow.

"Are You ......?"

"Dig up the grave and get it." Tang Sheng said it.

Her eyes widened, surprised, shocked.

"You are not afraid of thunder and thunder, and you dare to dig your mother's grave."

"It's not about being forced to find out the truth later. and build her a good grave. Tang Sheng said that he was very reasonable.

Zhou Yiran shook her head helplessly, she had already dug up, and it was useless to say anything now. However, she still admired him and asked him curiously.

"How did you come up with the idea to dig a grave? Your thinking is really unimaginable to ordinary people. ”

was praised by her, Tang Sheng laughed. Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Childe, your meal is ready."

"Come in." Tang Sheng said.

Xiao Er pushed open the door and put the food on the table, and then said to Tang Sheng: "What are the orders, the two of you shouted, and the little one retreated." ”

Tang Sheng nodded, and Xiao Er withdrew to close the door.

Tang Sheng looked at the food on the table, suddenly felt hungry, raised his head and asked her, "Do you want to eat some?" ”

Zhou Yiran shook her head: "No, you can eat!" It didn't take long for me to eat. I'm not hungry yet. ”

"Then the husband ate it himself." After speaking, he walked over and sat down, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and ate them in a big gulp.

She couldn't help but laugh when she looked at Tang Sheng like this, and then turned her head to continue looking at the painting on the table.

If Tang Sheng's father is really from the royal family, then he should not be alive.

Because in today's royal family, there is no prince alive, and I heard that after the emperor ascended the throne, those princes who were crowned kings died mysteriously one after another.

The truth was investigated by the emperor, but there were no clues, and then the matter was gradually forgotten.

But she felt that all this should be the emperor's hand.

Tang Sheng raised his head, chewed in his mouth, looked at her with his eyes, and saw her frowning. I couldn't help but ask.

"What are you thinking?"

"I wonder if your dad is still alive." She looked at Tang Sheng and said.

Tang Sheng heard her say this, and said very directly: "It must be dead, there is no prince in Chu State now." ”

"Yes."

She smiled and put the painting away, then saw that his bowl of rice was about to bottom, and asked him.

"Is there enough food? If it's not enough, I'll get it for you. ”

"Thank you daughter-in-law, remember to put it in a soup bowl."

"Why didn't you ask Xiao Er to fill a pot for you just now?" She was curious.

Tang Sheng laughed embarrassedly and said, "I didn't want to eat much just now, so I just needed a bowl of rice, but now I feel that a bowl of rice is not enough." ”

After listening to his words, she understood very well, because sometimes she is like this.

"Okay, you wait, I'll go get you a pot of rice."

With that, she opened the door and went downstairs.
